Are you gradually getting better, or worse? What direction am I headed in life? The ultimate goal in life is to have a mature relationship with God.

When you judge someone, you are only setting the standard for the judgment on you. When you judge someone, you have forgotten to guard yourself.

The path to truly feeling good about life is not an easy path. The path to truly feeling good about your life is not natural to you. The path to truly feeling good about your life is not instant.

In Acts Chapter 19 Paul is in Ephesus wanting to take the stage at the Great Theater.

To use the Name of Jesus, to invoke the Name of Jesus for power, it takes having a relationship with Him. But I have used the Name of Jesus, and nothing happened. Why? Well, there are times that even Jesus either couldn’t, or just didn’t heal people.
